Live from the “Duel in Denver” Spin Room: Joy in GOP-ville as Romney gets TKO on Obama (VIDEO)

Denver, Colorado — Republican pundits and Romney insiders are barely containing their joy in the wake of Wednesday’s presidential debate, which was widely scored a TKO for GOP candidate Mitt Romney — by just about everybody.

We hit the”spin room” to find some pretty big smiles on the faces of the Republican pundits. And tellingly — there weren’t too many Democrats in the crowd to talk to the hungry press corps about President Barack Obama’s performance. That said it all.

First, we’ll let you hear from Romney chief strategist Stuart Stevens, who talks to the SFChronicle/SFGate.com Shaky Hand Productions videocam about what this night will mean to his campaign. One word: reset.
